That includes my children and yours. "Blood Money" is the correct term for the cash they disburse. They are the ones who are oppposed to any sort of controls, be it for mental health reasons, domestic abusers, felons, or whoever that would prevent thme being able to buy a gun, no questions asked.

The NRA speaks for the gun manufacturers, not the members. Corporations do not have hearts or souls, only piggy banks. Anyone who supports the lobbying and bribery by the NRA is tarred with the same brush.

This is what the Parkland Surviors are campaigning for, and the polls seem to be running about two to one in favor of the "Kids".

1) Gun violence research ( which has been curtailed but Congress due to the NRA)
2) Strengthen the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives
3) Universal Background checks, and paperwork for all transfers, public and private
4) A high-capacity magazine ban
5) A ban on assault weapons

Now you know the Rest of the Story.

So, below is my post that cuebald is responding to, notice how he did not answer a single question, just spewed talking points...

The only "rest of the story" is that you can cut and paste talking points.

^^^ Talking about the NRA...yet people here say the NRA is a single element...then who is hogg talking about when he say "fu.....ers....?



Is the NRA a person, or who is he talking about?

So tell us, what facts has he provide? Other than his F'n parents cannot IM?

If you cannot, then just say "you got nothing."

It's interesting that she has gone silent of her own volition.

Smart choice, if she ever hopes to return to the airwaves.
It's quite possible that at least one of these sponsors made that decision simply because Hogg was bullying their employees, in his effort to force the company to bend to his will. Oh, I guess it's fine when those innocent employees are bullied, eh?

I explained in answer to your question who he was talking about with his comments, and I was specific as to who the head person was. That is what you asked for. The facts are, the NRA has the blood of all of the students killed by mass shooters on their hands. The facts I thought were pretty well covered in the five topics.

If you can't comprehend what I post, that is really not my problem. Perhaps you should be more precise when you ask questions.

Hey. Whatever works. It's the American way. It's even the Trump way. Might makes right.

Please explain how a high school student can bully a corporation into doing his will. David must be a lot more powerful than we give him credit for. I'll pop some corn and be right back.

So, now the NRA is just the head person?

I asked for what facts hogg provided, you cannot.

There is plenty out there, because it disagrees with you does not mean it's curtailed.
